Bidding method
Municipal tax lien auction run for the City of Lafayette by SRI Services, separate from the parish auction and covering municipal (city or town) taxes only. Louisiana replaced tax sales with tax lien auctions on January 1, 2026 (Act 774 of 2024 and Constitutional Amendment 4). Bidders compete on the interest rate the lien will earn, bid down from the statutory maximum; the winning bidder pays the delinquent municipal taxes, interest, penalties and costs and receives a tax lien certificate. Verify the current rate, penalty and redemption terms in La. R.S. 47:2151 et seq. before bidding.
Statutory maximum rate
Bid-down interest rate; the statutory maximum and penalty are set in La. R.S. 47:2151 et seq. as amended by Act 774 of 2024 (verify the figure in force for the sale year)
Redemption period
Set by La. Const. Art. VII, Sec. 25 and La. R.S. 47:2241 et seq.; three years from recordation for most property, shorter for blighted or abandoned property
